Diabetic Neuropathy

Diabetic neuropathy is
a disorder of the nervous system where, the nerve fibers of the entire body can
get seriously impacted. As suggested by the name, high diabetes increases a
person’s vulnerability to the condition.

Diabetic Neuropathy- Types

Diabetic neuropathy is
classed into 4 different types based on the exact nerves that got injured, due
to diabetes. Have a brief look at these 4 categories.

Peripheral
neuropathy: This is the type of diabetic
neuropathy that is most frequently seen, attacking the nerves of legs,
feet, arms and hands.

Proximal
neuropathy: When the bodily condition in
question affects the muscles related to buttocks, hips and the topmost
region of legs, it is proximal neuropathy.

Autonomic
neuropathy:Autonomic neuropathy can
potentially be the most dangerous of all the 4 varieties because it
directly damages the autonomic nervous system. And, it is a well-known
fact that, proper functioning of this system is imperative to safeguard
the normal state of body. This normal condition of the body is medically
called as homeostasis.

Focal neuropathy:
All the above 3 classes of neuropathy impact several nerves. But this
condition, focal neuropathy, is the one that harms only a particular nerve
and it can manifest all of a sudden with no preceding symptoms.

Primary
Symptoms of Diabetic Neuropathy

Obviously, the symptoms
are reliant on the exact type of neuropathy that the diabetic has developed. Thus,
it is essential that we segregate the symptoms accordingly. These are some of
the primary symptoms of peripheral
neuropathy:

Tingling
sensation/numbness at legs and feet

Burning
sensation/pain

Absence
of sensation at legs and feet

Likewise, the following
are the signs commonly seen in cases of proximal
neuropathy:

Pain
at buttocks, hips and thighs

The
legs becoming very weak

Similarly, you can
notice these symptoms when the specific issue is diabetic autonomic neuropathy:

Vomiting/nausea

Constipation

Diarrhea

Urine
incontinence

Fainting
or dizziness

Severe
sweating

Loss
of appetite

As mentioned earlier,
the focal neuropathy symptoms appear
very suddenly. Just take a glance at few of those major ones.

Eye
pain

Chest
pain

Partial
paralysis of facial region

Disturbances
in vision

Artificial
Pancreas Treatment (APT) - The Only Way to Combat Diabetic Neuropathy

At this juncture, it
needs to be understood that, the artificial pancreas treatment (APT) is the
only way to successfully beat diabetic neuropathy. Let us now focus on having a
basic understanding of APT.

The nerve cells rely
heavily on metabolism of glucose. And, when this key mechanism (glucose
metabolism) is lacking, the nerve cells are subjected to starvation leading to
their death. It is here that APT can make a very crucial difference! APT
immediately starts to provide the much-needed nourishment to the nerves and
therefore gradually reverses the neuropathy.

APT enhances the blood
circulation and this in turn brings back the sensations at feet, legs, etc, not
to mention the treatment’s role in making the tissues healthier. With so many
positives, it won’t be too long before neuropathy becomes just a thing of the
past.

Nice Post. Thanks for sharing such a great blog. The Diabetic is a chronic disease and it is curable by consuming medicines with diabetic food and proper physical exercise. One of the worst conditions with diabetic people is nerve damage. This may occur to few, who are with living with pro-longed high blood glucose level. The diabetic neuropathy treatment is the only solution to keep away from further nerve damages.
